“Is Deniz Göktaş being targeted simply because he has a large audience?”
You claim that he has insulted religion. Yet the Qur’an teaches, “Do not let your hatred of a people lead you away from justice.” If that principle exists, what exactly is causing this reaction? Who has appointed themselves the guardian of faith?
Corruption, injustice, organized crime, abuse of power… Those who remain silent in the face of these issues now claim to defend religion. Isn’t it those who exploit religion for personal or political interests who deserve greater scrutiny?
When morality, justice, and basic human values are under constant pressure, making an artist the primary target cannot be justified.
Deniz Göktaş is a young performer who has built his career through hard work and dedication. Was he the one responsible for creating these deep-rooted problems?
It is unfortunate when fear is directed toward artists, intellectuals, academics, opposition voices, independent journalists, and politicians who refuse to conform. History has repeatedly shown how those who silence criticism are ultimately remembered.
The passage of time has demonstrated that those associated with injustice are rarely remembered with respect, but often with condemnation.
Justice is essential for everyone—but especially for those who hold power today, because power does not last forever. 🇹🇷
